   ⁴For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

   ⁵Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:

   ⁶In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

   ⁷Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.

   ⁸Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;

   ⁹Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

   ¹⁰By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

   ¹¹To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the Lord: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.

   ¹²When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?

   ¹³Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.

   ¹⁴Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.

   ¹⁵And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

   ¹⁶¶ Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;

   ¹⁷Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.

   ¹⁸Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

   ¹⁹If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:

   ²⁰But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

   ²¹¶ How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.

   ²²Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water:

   ²³Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.

   ²⁴Therefore saith the Lord, the Lord of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies:

   ²⁵¶ And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin:

   ²⁶And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellers as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.

   ²⁷Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness.

   ²⁸¶ And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the Lord shall be consumed.

   ²⁹For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.

   ³⁰For ye shall be as an oak whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water.

   ³¹And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.

   ⁶Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
